A combined analysis was done of sleep and bladder filling during sleep. Cystometry did not specifically affect sleep, since most of the cystometry studies in cases of enuresis did not lead to sleep stage changes on electroencephalography. Bladder instability was not accompanied by lighter sleep. Increasing patient age did not appear to have any influence on sleep or bladder behavior. We conclude that it is possible to provoke enuresis at any sleep stage and that sleep is unaffected by bladder filling in enuretic patients.

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that results from the progressive loss of neurons in the brain followed by symptoms such as slowness and rigidity in movement, sleep disorders, dementia and many more. The different mechanisms due to which the neuronal degeneration occurs have been discussed, such as mutation in PD related genes, formation of Lewy bodies, oxidation of dopamine. This review discusses current surgical treatment and gene therapies with novel developments proposed for PD.

Purpose: Oral corticosteroids (OCS) are an effective treatment for severe uncontrolled asthma or asthma exacerbations, but frequent bursts or long-term use carry serious and sometimes irreversible adverse effects, or complications such as adrenal insufficiency upon discontinuation. Our aim was to survey people with asthma on their experiences of, and attitudes towards, using OCS.

Patients And Methods: This study was a national descriptive cross-sectional survey of people with asthma in Australia.

A Structured, Anatomy-Based Chest CT Interpretation Curriculum for Pulmonary Fellows Covering the Main Patterns of Parenchymal Lung Disease.

MedEdPORTAL

January 2025

Associate Professor, Division of Pulmonary, Critical Care and Sleep Medicine, University of Washington School of Medicine; Staff Physician, Pulmonary, Critical Care and Sleep Medicine Section, Veterans Affairs Puget Sound Healthcare System.

Introduction: Chest computed tomography (CT) interpretation is a key competency for pulmonary fellows, with many resources intended for radiologists but very few for this specific group. We endeavored to create a curriculum to teach chest CT interpretation to first-year pulmonary fellows.

Methods: We assembled a team of two pulmonologists, one radiologist, and a fellow with computer drafting software experience.

Therapeutic doses of efzofitimod demonstrate efficacy in pulmonary sarcoidosis.

January 2025

Division of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine, Feinberg School of Medicine, Northwestern University, Chicago, IL, USA.

Background: In a phase 1b/2a clinical trial of efzofitimod in patients with corticosteroid-requiring pulmonary sarcoidosis, treatment resulted in dose-dependent improvement in key end-points. We undertook a analysis pooling dose arms that achieved therapeutic concentrations of efzofitimod (Therapeutic group) those that did not (Subtherapeutic group).

Methods: Peripheral blood mononuclear cells incubated with tuberculin-coated beads were exposed to varying concentrations of efzofitimod in an assay to determine concentrations that inhibited granuloma formation.

Background: Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) and olfactory dysfunction (OD) are prevalent disease complications in people with cystic fibrosis. These understudied comorbidities significantly impact quality of life. The impact of highly effective modulator therapy (HEMT) in young children with cystic fibrosis (YCwCF) on these disease complications is unknown.
